With all of her newly minted friendships, she and her little one are getting invita- tions to birthday parties -- lots of them! "Can you help me with ideas for birthday gifts for young children that will score with the kids without breaking our budget?" You bet, Elaine. Try these ideas on for size: 1) The Story of Me. Give the birth- day girl (or boy) everything she needs to write (or draw) the story of her life. For a child just learning to read, write or draw, include a list of "prompts," for example, instructing the child to draw a picture of a favorite animal or place to visit or what makes her laugh. Package it with a pad or a book of drawing paper, markers, crayons and enough prompts for her to complete all the pages in her book. 2) Play Kit. Spark the interest and imagination of the birthday child with a custom play kit you put together. "Design" the kit on paper by making a list of contents, and then go "shopping" in your home, garage or attic. Visit thrift shops, garage sales and consign- ment stores for items that can be laun- dered and sanitized. Make kits for boys or girls; feature themes such as Dress- Police reports The following informa- tion is compiled from Red Bluff Police Department, Tehama County Sheriff’s Department, Corning Police Department and California Highway Patrol. Arrests •Terry Jo Boyle, 49, of Oak Harbor, Wash. was arrested Friday evening on Dusty Way, west of Raw- son Road. He was booked into jail on the charges of inflicting corporal injury on a spouse or cohabitant and false imprisonment with violence. Bail was set at $65,000. According to Sheriff’s logs, CHP received reports of a man and woman dri- ving east on Gyle Road who were involved in a fist fight and the woman was trying to jump out of the vehicle, which was pulled over in the 23400 block of Gyle Road. The black SUV with a yellow quad tied behind it, continued going north on Highway 99W with the 53- year-old woman continuing to attempt to jump from it. The vehicle was eventu- ally pulled over on Dusty Way where the woman was transported at her request via ambulance to St. Eliza- beth Community Hospital. • James William Mitchell, 20, of Red Bluff was arrested Friday in the 800 block of Kimball Road in Red Bluff. He was booked into jail on the felony charge of vandalism. Bail was set at $3,000. • Joshua Edward Morey, 35, of Los Molinos was arrested Thursday evening on Highway 99E at Tehama Vina Road. He was booked into Tehama County Jail on the charge of possession of a danger- ous weapon. Tehama County Sher- iff’s Deputies were sent at 10:35 p.m. to the area of Highway 99E and Tehama Vina Road after it was reported a man was walk- ing in the area, causing a disturbance with Bar 99 patrons. Deputies contacted Morey, who was suffering from minor lacerations to his hand. When fire personnel arrived on scene to bandage Morey’s wound they had him take of his jacket at which point deputies Up, Kitchen, Handyman, Restaurant, Doctor, Cowboy and Entertainer. 3) Piggy Bank. Start your recipient on the debt-proof road early with a piggy bank. Add a starter fund of coins (and cash, if it's in your budget) to encourage regular deposits. With coins already inside the pig, it makes it much more fun to add more coins and to shake the noisy pig, too. 4) Photo Jigsaw Puzzle. Mount an enlarged photo of your child and the birth- day child (or some other appropriate picture or poster that will have special meaning for the birthday child) onto a piece of foam board. Cover the photo with a piece of tracing paper, and lightly draw a jigsaw pattern, making the number of pieces appropriate for the recipient's age. Carefully cut through the paper, photo and board along the puzzle lines. Separate the pieces, and place them in a gift box. Visit BigHugeLabs.com, a free online photo lab, where you can noticed Morey had a large hunting style knife con- cealed under his jacket in the area of his upper back and neck. Morey, who indi- cated the knife was for pro- tection, was arrested and booked into Tehama Coun- ty Jail. Bail was set at $10,000. • Katherine Lucille O’Farrell, 61, of Corning was arrested Friday in the 1000 block of South Main Street. O’Farrell, also known as Katherine Lucille Murr and Kathy Edminston was booked into jail on the charge of petty theft with a prior jail term. Bail was $15,000. • Jason Michael Stewart, 35, of Corning was arrested Friday on Fig Lane at West Street. He was booked into Tehama County Jail on the charges of second degree burglary and possession of burglary tools. Bail was $30,000. Crashes • A 41-year-old Red Bluff woman was flown to Mercy Medical Center in Redding with major injuries following a solo vehicle crash at 12:50 a.m. Saturday on Highway 36 W. Virginia Olds was dri- ving a 1993 Chevy Corvette west on Highway 36W, east of Cannon Road, when she failed to negotiate a curve and the Corvette launched across a small but deep canyon, said Califor- nia Highway Patrol Officer Phillip Mackintosh. The vehicle landed on its roof on the other side of canyon, causing the roof to cave-in, before the vehicle slid back into and falling to the bottom of the canyon. Olds, who was trapped in the vehicle until cut free by CalFire, was arrested on suspicion of DUI and released to be treated. The vehicle had major damage. • Jesus Florez, 33, of Corning was uninjured in a crash at 12:08 a.m. Mon- day on Houghton Avenue, south of South Avenue.
